I have bumped into this problem too on win7 before. the error was same. I had never got it on xp64. maybe you can get rid of it by compiling on xp.

Don't know wht the hell is going on???
Now i installed MS VC++ 2008 ,,But still same problem
1.File|New|Project
2.From selection list i select Maya Plug-in Wizard & set name to "Hello World"
3.In next dialog box i set Maya version to 2011 & Vendor name to "Joker"
4.Next i set type of plugin to MEL cmd.
5.click on finish
And Boooom "Creating Project 'Hello World'...Project Creation failed"

Using This trick i m able to compile Plug-in (From Devkit Folder)For Maya 2011 64bit,Just by drag & drop *.sln file from Devkit>>Plug-ins folder.That means ,now my MS VC++ 2010 express is compatible to compile source code for Maya 64bit by this way,But still i m getting that error ("Creating Project 'Hello World'...Project Creation failed" ),when i try to create new project with MayaPluginWizard selection.So,tell me whts wrong i m doing Or tell me How different way i can start project.Reply ASAP.
Thank you
